Unless of course that solution destroys the performance on the target system. I am the one who started this thread, and as I stated at the beginning, I have a dual core Turion L52 64bit processor, 1.5Gigs of memory and a 7200 RPM Sata drive, and the performance went out the door. Other than a large MBox in my Thunderbird, I don't have that much data to index, and Beagle took 700Meg or RAM and 1Gig of SWAP, niced or not, that causes a lot of swapping.
I think a bigger and more appropriate question is to determine WHY your performance is degraded.
Don't you see why it is degraded? It is obvious: his beagle used 700 MB of RAM and 1GB of swap.
That's a software problem, a bug in beagle eating that much memory and causing swapping. Not a hardware problem at all. Or are you saying that in order to use beagle he should buy 2 Gigs more?

I'm saying I'm running it on my primary box with only 640MB RAM, 1 GIG swap and I have no performance issues whatsoever. So, the fact that hardware was discussed before I made my comment, it was to emphasize that the hardware issue is probably moot. Somewhere there's a configuration issue. And it ain't a common issue on every machine, so the point is, instead of bashing Beagle as a problem for everyone, let's focus on why its a problem for SOME people and not others. Then we can get to the root of the problem. -- ---Bryen--- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
